An Aussie mum expecting her second child has announced that she plans to give birth while streaming the event on her Facebook page.

Adele Barbaro, who has a blog on Facebook called The Real Mumma has announced she wants her second child's entry into the world to be put on the internet to help other expectant parents understand the journey of childbirth.

Barbaro and her husband Paul already have a son named Harvey, and believe that documenting the experience will help parents who may be unsure about how to approach such a life changing event.

In a column for news.com Barbaro explains that live streaming the birth will "bring some awareness to all the different stages of labour and the unpredictability of what can happen. Particularly, because this time there is no birth plan, no expectations and I have an open mind."
